Concurent build and deployment on the same remote agent?

Question

Hi All,

Does Bamboo allow to run on the same agent a build plan for a project and deploy (existing artefacts from previous builds) for the same project concurrently?

Considering build agent has enough horse power - is there any way to achieve this?

I don't want to use/install/etc. a second agent while I've got good hardware on existing one.

Reason: build process takes long time (including tests) while deployment is quick.
At the moment I have to wait until build finishes (deployment task is delayed) ...

Thanks,
Constantin

Tahnks Timothy,

I installed the 2-nd instance of Bamboo agent in a separate directory.

You can install multiple agents on the same server but one agent can only run one build at any one time.
